Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Victor didn't realize why until he was escorted to the law enforcement bureau.

Is it because of Singed?

It shouldn't be...

No matter how hard he thought about it, Victor couldn't figure out under what circumstances Singed could commit such a big thing that even a former student would be implicated.

In his mind, his teacher was like a white lotus compared to other Zaun people who committed violent crimes and committed crimes...

What bad intentions could an alchemist who spends all his time in the laboratory have?

Soon, at the Law Enforcement Bureau, all his doubts were answered - the law enforcement officers handed Victor some copies of documents that were not confidential materials and asked him to confess and be lenient.

Victor, who took the document, widened his eyes more and more as he looked at it.

Illegal medical practice and other minor crimes that were not traced back to the past before the establishment of New Zaun are not counted. Singed's main crimes are reflected in the following points.

War crime: knowing subjectively and objectively the effects of one's products and knowing that they were used for war purposes, but still providing poison gas bombs and low-light stimulants to the Noxians for economic gain.

Crimes against humanity: If shimmer medicine has a positive side and can be used as a prescription drug when necessary, then ditch gas bombs are a complete product against humanity and must be completely banned.

Intentional injury to death: The experimenters in Singed's laboratory are nominally voluntary, but many of them are actually bought and fall within the scope of being voluntary.

Crime of endangering public safety: While negotiating with Lux, he used dangerous trench gas bombs, which almost caused serious and irreversible damage to Zaun.

Looking at his teacher's "glorious resume", Victor was completely dumbfounded.

Victor knew that Singed had always had a mad scientist side - he was ruthless in experiments and extremely enthusiastic about any results and progress, but he never thought that the teacher who once supported him would actually still There will be such a twisted and terrifying side.

This made Victor surprised and a little horrified. This kind of dehumanization was not what he wanted to see...

After putting down the information, Victor suddenly didn't know what to say. Facing the law enforcement officer's gaze, he could only dryly explain his purpose.

I am not here to rob the prison, and I have no conspiracy. I just hope to get some help in alchemy.

Then, while other law enforcement officers looked at him with suspicion, a young man with a tuft of white hair on his head pushed open the door and entered.

"Victor has been saved and the commitment letter has been signed." The visitor took out a commitment letter and handed it to the leader of the law enforcement officers. Then he turned and looked at Wei, "Don't forget to come back tonight. When you eat, Baobao said she prepared a special dish for you."

"...I know, Ike." Wei rolled her eyes helplessly, "I hope you won't be the one who ran away halfway."

The next moment, under Victor's surprised gaze, Ike gave him a warm hug.

"Victor, you didn't even say a word when you returned to Zaun!"

In a sense, Victor and Ike have a "carrying guns together" relationship. Although Ike was prejudiced against Victor at the beginning, that night, when Victor, Jace and Ike When they started working together, using the Hex device that had not yet been developed to mine and save people, they were comrades fighting side by side.

The dark mine was their trench.

In fact, after the establishment of New Zaun, Ekko also tried to find Victor and bring him back to Zaun. According to him, Victor was a capable person. Although he looked like a sick man, he was really good at it. superior.

It's a pity that both Victor and Jace are Piltover's babies, especially after Camille took complete control and Hex Technology became Piltover's new growth point - Victor's "family visit" applications were made several times before , in fact, they were all rejected by Camille herself.

After the mining incident, Jace already felt that he owed nothing to Zaun, and with his association with Mel, he had gradually entered the upper echelons of Piltover.

But Victor is different.

After all, he was born in Zaun, and he also mastered Piltover's key technologies.

Camille didn't want him to have thoughts that he shouldn't have - if she hadn't had the idea of ​​easing the relationship between the twin cities, she would never have allowed Victor to set foot on the land of Zaun again.

Of course, Victor didn't know all this.

……………………

With Ike's guarantee and signed guarantee, Victor and Skye left the law enforcement bureau smoothly.

(During this period, Ike also asked about Skye's identity, and then signed an additional guarantee - however, his subtle glances between the two made the assistant seem a little uneasy.)

And from Ike's mouth, Victor finally learned the details of his teacher.

"He is going to be sent to Ionia?!" Victor's eyes widened in shock, "Why is this?"

"Because compared to Zaun, Ionia has more power to judge him." Ike looked calm, "I'm afraid you don't know what terrible damage the sewer gas has caused to Ionia... Moreover, for Many things before the establishment of New Zuan are not so clear.”

Ekko didn't hide this at all - Singed's trial has always been a topic that Zaun couldn't avoid.

Although in theory, his use of gas bombs on Lux fully deserved the death penalty, the problem was never this part, but before.

Whether or not Singed's actions before the founding of New Zaun should be investigated is a question.

If he was pursued, it would involve punishing him without teaching, and it would be unjustifiable to not pursue him, so Lux finally made the decision to send him to Ionia.

Before the founding of New Zaun, he served his sentence in Ionia. If the Ionians mercifully spared his life, then Zaun would directly give him a happy life for his attack on Lux.

By the way, I can also sell Ionia a favor, which can be regarded as using waste and killing two birds with one stone.

Victor blinked, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't - after reading the information, he really had no angle to defend Singed.

Singed himself admitted knowing the effects of the gas and what the Noxians were using it for, and in every sense of the word, he deserved it.

"Don't think about him anymore." Ike gently patted Victor on the shoulder, "I heard that you are here to seek help in alchemy? Tell me, I might be able to help!"

"you?"

Victor was stunned for a moment.

"Why, you look down on me?" Ike took out a medal from his pocket, sighed, wiped it and put it on his chest, "How about the youngest alchemist of the Zaun Alchemy Association? This title is cool. Not cool?”

"Didn't you work as an apprentice in a machinery factory before?" Victor said hesitantly, "Isn't this a bit different from an alchemist?"

"I told you, I'm a genius." Ike looked high-spirited, as if he was still the guy who found the academy and took the initiative to carry the cutting machine. "In terms of rune alchemy, there are few people in Zaun who are better than me. Qiang, if you need any help, just ask!"

"I - cough cough cough!" Victor couldn't help coughing twice, "I'm afraid it won't work. What I need is help from the human body..."

"Your body can't hold it anymore?" Seeing this scene, Ike finally frowned, "You are also from Zu'an. You should know the dangers of those alchemy potions. They are not suitable for your physical condition."

"I don't want to use potions to transform myself." Victor waved his hand and explained in a low voice, "This involves some confidential projects in Piltover. I'm sorry I can't disclose them. In short, I need something to enhance my body's physical tolerance. With the help of alchemical technology.”

"Enhance the body's physical tolerance?" Ike touched his chin, "Well, let's do this. Come to the Alchemy Association with me and sit for a while. I'll see if I can help you think of a way - if it's for Your body’s words.”

"Well, thank you." Victor nodded, "Let's go."

……………………

It seemed that because of the mention of Victor's health, the three of them fell silent - Ike stopped showing off his achievements, Victor was observing the new Zaun intently, and Skye was one step behind, looking at Victor worriedly.

Soon, the three people turned around two streets and arrived at the Alchemy Association in Zaun.

This is a very impressive building, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. At first glance, it looks a bit like a flask.

The exterior wall of the Alchemy Association building is different from the surrounding buildings. There are no deep or light red graffiti on it, but it maintains the original gray color of the beggar's version of the forbidden magic stone.

But when Victor got closer and took a closer look, he could see that there were squares of pure color like mosaics above the door.

Seeing this unique shape, Victor subconsciously asked, "What is that?"

"That's the alchemy mark." Ike smiled. "According to the standards of the Alchemy Association, memorable achievements will leave a square on the outside of the building in its most prominent color - now we have only filled a dozen of them. It’s a square, but I believe this building will be covered in various colors sooner or later in the future!”

Victor blinked in surprise.

This is indeed a very interesting idea. Select the representative color of the alchemical results and make a color block to leave outside the building, as if everyone worked together to build an alchemy building using alchemy...

This is really a genius idea, in a sense, much more interesting than the statues all over the floor at Piltover Academy of Science and Progress!

"When I have the opportunity later, I will look for you in the previous journals and tell you about the color blocks that I have now." Aikela opened the door, "Let's go and sit in my office for a while, don't waste time here. .”

Kalya’s Little Classroom·Zunan Alchemy Association Building:

This wonderfully shaped building just won Zaun's first Best Architectural Design Award not long ago - both designers and alchemists, everyone is very satisfied with it.
